3 Forgotten Songs From 1992 That Deserve Another Chance To Hit No. 1
American Songwriter has revisited three songs from 1992 that the outlet argues deserved to reach No. 1 on the charts but fell short and have since faded from mainstream memory. The piece is an opinion-led retrospective rather than news, reflecting on tracks that were popular in their era but rarely receive airplay today, and speculating they would perform strongly if re-released now.
The three songs highlighted are:
– "All I Want" by Toad The Wet Sprocket, from the album 'Fear' — peaked at No. 4 on the US Top 40/Mainstream chart and No. 15 on the Billboard Hot 100
– "Weather With You" by Crowded House, from 'Woodface' — performed well in the UK and Europe but never crossed over to US success
– "Just Another Day" by Jon Secada, from his self-titled debut album — reached No. 5 on the Hot 100 and No. 1 on the Hot Latin Tracks chart
